"This solution has helped us with the categorization, organization, management, discovery, and delivery of program and project related information." "The most valuable features are the Integrations, web site, and search." "The online editing capabilities, file sharing, auditing, information security, ease of solution management, and the easy user adaptation to the platform are the most valuable features."

"I like how it integrates graphics and words, and more generally, the way people can develop the choices of spaces for different websites." |
Cons | |
"Workflow is something that can become more intelligent." "I would like a simpler, more cost-effective solution for connecting data sources with workflows and BI tools, or data mining tools."

"The areas of this solution that need improvement are the relationships between lists, cross-site web parts, and page-building tools."

Pricing and Cost Advice | |
